01 A Vision for a Self-Reliant Singapore Sustainable thinking and a system-based approach to design NUS ISD Studio 2018 Fall Instructors:

Assoc. Professor Nirmal Kishnani Mr. Wong Mun Summ, Woha Mr. Alakesh Dutta, Surbana-Jurong Consultants In Asia, these past decades, we have seen a systemic degradation of cities, parks, rivers and water bodies. A Green building, no matter how well intentioned, looks inwards, within boundaries of site and shell and is focused on the well-being of occupant and developer. The search for sustainable solutions, we now know, cannot be confined to the scale of standalone buildings. The search for a sustainable Asia calls for a new way of seeing buildings and their relation to the city. Buildings are embedded within wider systems such as energy and water grids, biodiversity and habitat networks, public and social space. The health of the system as a whole is affected by every insertion, every new development. What if buildings â&#x20AC;&#x201C; even ones that are privately owned or profit-making were designed to connect or repair the systems in which they are embedded? Can the city become self-sufficient in energy, water and food? Can it restore ecological health by integrating human and natural systems in new ways? The goal of this studio is to craft an approach for a new kind of development, one that is generous, restorative and net-positive.

EXTRAPOLATION OF DATA SET TO ISLAND SCALE

REPLICATION AND AGGREGATION:

Through the different permutations and combinations of the parameters that affect green, we can judge whether there is a trend that can be used for prediction. As we can see here there is no significant trend in any combination of indicators except density and green plot ratio. Parameters of analysis

According to our study we got to know that on an average, bio-diversity thrives best at heights below 50m – any green above the height of 50m is mostly biophilic. So we divided each density type into proportions of bio-centric and biophilic, based on the average height of each density type. Low Density <1.8

uilding-integrated greenery has become a widely accepted design strategy to create habitats (patches) and pathways (corridors) for species movement.But not all of it can become a part of biodiversity networks, different building forms and building heights have great influence on the ecological value of building greening. Vertical greenery is generally composed of multiple small green patches in a terraced arrangement. These are likely to be lowdiversity, managed vegetation, therefore the biodiversity potential here tends to be low. At best, it can serve as corridor or stepping stone for the movement of species. The height of the building-integrated greenery also determines how

accessible it is to different species. Beyond 25 metres, the presence of butterflies decreases significantly; for birds, the upper limit is about 50 metres.As a result, patches at elevations of more than 50 metres are likely to lack species diversity. Therefore, according to the different heights and forms of buildings, building-integrated greenery that meet the common flying heights of birds and butterflies is considered as part of the network system connecting green patch, while the greening of buildings that exceed the height is considered as the biophilic design for human wellbeing.

aintaining habitat connectivity is a key strategy in planning for biodiversity. Not only do many species of plants and animals rely on connected patches of habitat to move around their territories, find mates, hunt, forage, and reproduce, people also find them desirable additions to urban and suburban landscapes for recreation and access to nature. Water-bodies are one the most important habitats for birds, mammals, fish, etc, because most species are entirely dependent on aquatic habitats for food. Otters are good indicator species of water habitats because they are very susceptible to pollution. Hence, the state of aquatic ecosystems can be indecated by distribution of indicator species.

While the design of corridor is highly dependent on context and species, a general rule is that corridor should be a minimum of 10 to 20 metres wide in order for small mammals,pangolin and lizards to form territories and resident populations. Also by identitying key indicator species among birds for various habitats in singapore and mapping their movements to see the range or proximity where or how far can the biodiversity reach with existing networks. This study was able tto identify some white spots that are probably area of concern or needs attention to introduce greens.

hrough a network of rivers, canals and drains, rain that falls on 2/3rd of Singapore's land area is channelled to our 17 reservoirs. But 80 percent of the collected water would be lost through evaporation.The problem of water system is not space, but how we manage our source and storage for water. Water losses can be minimized through decentralized water storage systems, such as towers and underground water storage systems.

Water Tower The Water Tower is designed to store water on higher ground and also create viewing decks for public. It has Solar PVs on the roof top which generates electricity to pump the water up. This tower also incorporates bat caves and bird nest holes with creepers running up the outer skin of staircase. There is a system of staircases and viewing galleries that occupy the internal space and allow for bird (and wildlife) watching without disturbing the various species.Altogether, this tower is truly designed to be a ‘Passive Energy Storage System’.

This cage fishing method takes place in the open sea and eliminates the exposure to wind and waves.

This level includes a hatchery where fish eggs are incubated and hatched, a nursery for growing fish, and a storage room to hold the fish before they are ready for the market.

The Floating Farm module incorporates vertical farming, hydroponics, aquaculture and renewable energy to produce food. A combination of Solar PVs and pockets of skylight form the roof which produces 166 KWh of energy per sq.km. Below that is the layer for high tech grains production. Grains’ yield is calculated based on 4.2 kg/sqm. The lowest layer is that of fish production which takes place within the water space (either fresh or sea water). The area of the module underwater is caged for fish farming which yields 20kg/sqm.

NEIGHBORHOOD SCALE

Singapore Strait

Site Area 5.9 km2

The site is located in the northeast of Singapore, with a coastal park, a community park, and large industrial areas. Because of its close proximity to the coastline, the site has very high-value ecological resources, such as mangroves and mudflat, which are not well connected. Due to the low utilization of the large industrial area, there is almost no greening except the unaccessable open space in the center. During this stage, we will integrated it with five systems fto see how efficient system works.Meanwhile,improve the quality of life of users. After applying the new typology for the neighbouring industrial zone, a lot of area is freed making it possible to convert it into a new community park. A park in the highly industial zone is a relief for residents staying nearby and also a pleasant site for those who work in the idustrial area. This park has the Sungei Loyang to be naturalised into a river that flows into the park creating a biodiversity rich area and public spaces. Part of the park is also used for farming. The elevated MRT line crossed the site incorporates vertical greenery to attract biodiversity and solar panels on the roof canopy with public activities on ground level. This is combined with fruits farming areas which are able to grow orchards of tropical fruits. This forms an active public space where visitors are allowed to enter the orchards to feel closer to nature. Due to land space constraints, a multilayer stacked system is created which can produce energy and food floating on water.

02 Baoshan CDB Eco Hub Urban Transformation Vertical Eco-city in Asia NUS ISD Studio 2018 Spring Instructors：

Asma Khawatmi, Tan Puay Yok, Yun Hye Hwang Lau Siu Kit, Anuj Jain Due to rapid urbanization and an uneven population distribution through the city of shanghai, baoshan is undergoing a transformation to emerge as a new innovative district. The site, situated at the Yangtze riverbank, hosts one of Shanghai’s three cruise terminals as well as a direct express link to Pudong airport. This unique positioning drove the concept for baoshan CBD Eco hub – a new business district; a city for people designed to integrate an effective chain of mobility, a thriving ecological condition, a new source of economy and clean, renewable energy to reaffirm baoshan as the new, innovative district of tomorrow.

POTENTIAL FLOODING ANALYASIS

We propose a system of natural drainage to improve the efficiency of water movement throughtout the city, while reducing flooding risk. A variety of green stormwater infrastructure technologies will be used to treat polluted run-off from surrounding neighborhoods, and the occupied river terraces.Specifically three green spaces and Youyi Park are proposed to act as seasonal dentention pond to accommodate flooding during the rainy season.Existing green spaces are modified accordingly to topography. Together with the new proposed green roofs, these greens could help to clean, collect surface run-off. Sturcture cells and other design tools are also employed to increase ground water recharge ability of unutilized streets and spaces.

For exanple, 10m wide urban forest belt is designed along the main roads and acr as foraging place for the common bird typology. A buffer of 3m of green space are created along the sidewalks to act as resting place. Trees planted in 1m planting box is part if the structural cells system which act as stepping stones within the narrow confines of urban streets. Green corridors are designed with a myrid of greeneries, providing continuous overlapping habitas for target anmimal speices.

ue to the high vehicular dependancy, there is sporadic green space with asphalt & hardscape surfaces as the primary urban texture. With a focus on human and environmental health, the scheme will include a one-mile fitness loop with workout equipment, as well as natural and technical systems to mitigate water pollution, provide habitat for wildlife, harvest energy with solar panels, and collect stormwater for reuse. Regionally-appropriate flora and fauna will enable to ecological restoration of the riverfront, while new plantings will improve tree canopy shade for park goers.aturalization of the river corridor with a new understanding that restoring the river’s edge would prevent flooding due to urbanization. Pedestrian accessibility and leisure activities are enhanced through a series of interconnected elements. A “loop” cuts through the buildings on the ground floor, forming a continuous path activated 24/7, even after all the offices close at night. It links all the daily lifestyle attractors for the people that work and live around and connects to the adjacent plazas to create a more fluid pedestrian experience.

23 The Mosque and the other two opposite street corner buildings act as the main functional factors that attract certain kinds of people. the 5 foot way, sidewalk and even the street itself which is easy to pass become a transition area that m e rge a l l o f t h i s e l e m e nt s to get h e r.

THE VARIETY OF OPEN SPACE Compared To The Other General Public Space Plot In The City, The Case In Joo Chiat Is More Like An Invisible Public Activity Platform Pieced Together By Small Puzzles, Meaning Its Various Types Of Open Space Includes The 5 Foot Ways, Sidewalk, Front Square, Backyard, Street Corner And As Well As Parking Lots. All Of These Small Scale But Vibrant Open Spaces Are Permuting And Combining In Different Forms And Orders, To Form The Unique Type Of Open Space That May Only Exist In Joo Chiat

We noticed a lot of public buildings (food court/church/cc/school) is located at the street corner which are perfectly combined with the front corner space.

THE FLOATING BUBBLES

Casuarina equisetifolia L has been used as coastal shelter forest for years in the area of Hainan Island Coast, for its resistance to unfertileness and drought as well as symbiosis and Nitrogen fixation with actinomycetes makes it a great coastal sand pioneer tree species. However, with the increase of its generation’s number, the disadvantages of Casuarina forest are exposed, such as the update circle is short, and they tend to be aged. They reach their growth peak after about 15 years, and begin to age after 20 years. Green plum（Vatica mangachapoi Blanc） grows on tropical coastal white sand with sea sand as its parent material. The sand has no hierarchical structure, it is barren and dry. Vatica mangachapoi Blanc has absolute advantage in forest community, their saplings and seedlings are all over shrub layer and herb layer. We will achieve more if we guide the community succession successfully. Young Green plum grows in shade better, and Casuarina grows fast, so they have different ecological niches. Green plum reaches its rapid growth period when it’s 40 while Casuarina has been old. If we cut Casuarina at its 40 and replace it with Green plum, shelter forest can maintain for hundreds of years.

Preserve some original sand land, with the earth art of retaining walls and succulents, to cause visual impact and arouse the attention on brownfields restoration.

COASTAL PROTECTORS Mangrove forests are vital for healthy coastal ecosystems in many regions of the world .Mangroves literally live in two worlds at once, making up a transitional zone between land and sea, whilst connecting and supporting both.Mangrove ecosystems are also important habitats for a wide range of birds and insect species, and lesser numbers of mammals and reptile species, providing nesting, feeding, and refuge areas. Coastal protection is an important function of mangrove forests, serving as a natural barrier against tropical storms, and tsunami, and therefore protecting coastal inhabitants.Coastal protection is an important function of mangrove forests, serving as a natural barrier against tropical storms, and tsunami, and therefore protecting coastal inhabitants.

Ecological Benefit of Fish Reef

The complicated structures of waste tools can be the space of habitat, feeding and also evacuation for many fish, if we sink the tools of the original sand mine. On the other hand, we build the wood walkway and periscope above them, so that tourists can observe the fish at the seabed, enhancing the interaction between human being and nature and arousing peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s memory of the area. Simultaneously, we also repair the original mangrove forest in the reef coast area reasonably according to the site condition. The control of marine waste and the construct of artificial reefs can improve the quality of ocean water and promote the growth of mangrove forest, while the growth of mangrove forest promoting the biodiversity of marine life, hence forming a virtuous circle.

There will be diatom on the surface after a month.

The surface will be covered by organisms after nine months.

There will be a large algae community after a year.

There will be coral reefs around the artificial reefs after 10 years.

The viewing platform on the fluctuated Huwei Hill is designed to connect the beach by wooded plank road, so that tourists can see lighthouse on the north directly and overlook the beauty of the whole beach. The tree canopy corridor in the waterfront woods is designed, so that people can view from different perspectives.

The large camping base in the woods of the west coast is divided into RV camping and tent camping, to form a camping place for groups, and with the beach and the coconut trees, this can be a recreation site for entertainment activities, such as vacation, camping and barbecue.

Interesting tree canopy exploration games allow tourists to enjoy excitement on the top of trees, to test their balance and flexibility, and feel the feeling of being among the nature in the meantime. And there are different levels of difficulty for tourists to choose.

DETIALS

Reconstruct the vegetation by soil restoration, applying the principle that suitable trees for suitable soil. At last, reform the original fish pond, and design mud pond, wet land and a place in the water for exploration, educational activities and mud pond games.

Preserve some original sand land, with the earth art of retaining walls and succulents, to cause visual impact and arouse the attention on brownfields restoration.

Screen the marine waste brought by the ocean current, paint blue on them and then use them to make art installations. Put them on the coast to arouse peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s memory of the site, to remind people that those wastes come from the ocean by using vivid blue, and to educate.

38 The design combined riverside landscape with channel improvement to promote the renewal of interior urban landscape, inherit local culture, improve urban ecological environment, raise land value and enhance land vitality. Due to the rapid development of the city, the centrally eject of sanitary sewage and rainwater into the old river made the ecological diversity reduced and the previous purification capacity lost. Therefore, the first step was to rebuild a healthy ecological environment system, including improving water quality and rainwater quality of the Shuangliu River, planting native aquatic plants to restore ecological habitats, and building an open space leading to the riverside, ultimately promoting sustainable development of the area.

The original site boasts abundant natural resources but landscape character is relatively indistinct. Ecological and environmental conditions were relatively undisturbed, but agricultural activities has caused significant environmental pollution in some areas. The design removes the concrete of the river bank, recovers the riparian plains on both sides of the river and turns them into Green Sponges, which are designed to be flood adaptive, able to catch and re-mediate the surface flows from the agricultural fields and build areas biologically; Ecological buffers are designed so that the river water can be diverted, slowed down and cleansed. A network of timber boardwalks and viewing platforms weaves across the site, providing ample opportunities for diverse landscape experiences.

42 Over the course of more than a decade, factory buildings have been transformed into new industrial park with museums, galleries, and cafe, and previously hidden courtyards and vacant lots are now settings for outdoor sculptures, fashion shows, and other cultural events. However, due to the single landscape element and the lack of public space, the park has not been able to attract people and generate profits continuously, resulting in the closure of many small business. The goal of renovation and design of “Chengdu Eastern Suburb Memory Industrial Park” is to build the communication spaces and venues which is adapted to potential domain functions by reorganizing the site and content, interface, and texture of building, that is, strive to provide display, exchange, investment and financing services, office and leisure supporting platforms and venues for cultural innovation enterprises.

07 RENOVATED LANDSCAPE DESIGN OF

EASTERN SUBURB MEMORY INDUSTRIAL PARK, CHENGDU

The planning aims at creating a low carbon ecological park with high-efficient linkage, to form â&#x20AC;&#x153;one axis, one ring, four groups and two points â&#x20AC;&#x153;.

An existing infrastructural Structure is integrated into the Underutilized vacant land, allowing children of all ages can play safely with it.

Semi-private landscape rooms allow for passive individual or active small group use.

Activate the underutilized plaza by introducing small retail, coffee shops, restaurants, and designing shaded seating for people to engage in various activities

After the reconstruction, instead of the single image and function of the old entrance, it has been built as the landmark of the site.

By introducing water features at the entrance, the microclimate in the park would be improved ,creating a vibrant space for people.

Before

After

The landscape elements of the original site are single and lack of identifiable landscape. Enlivening the prominent street with seasonal plant displays of enormous scale, color, complexity, and texture. Displays would be changed out in Spring, Summer, and Fall to add seasonally appropriate interest and vibrant to Eastern Suburb Memory Industrial Park.

South entrance Elevation After

South entrance Elevation Before

Three different displays are carefully planned and installed annually so as to re ain seasonally appropriate. Through a series of interventions at different scales, the design of the industrial park redefines new ways of living, working and learning that span both indoor and outdoor. Highly transactional and communicating streamlines is set along the open periphery. Relatively static streamlines of cultural activities, landscape space, catering facilities, etc., Are set along the Garth. Interfaces and streamlines are rebuilt and integrated,which inspire the vitality of site and achieve the transformation from individual to place.

RENOVATED LANDSCAPE DESIGN OF

BAIMA VILLAGE, SICHUAN

he village has a certain basis of tourism function. On weekends or in the flowering season, local residents of Sichuan will come here for sightseeing. There are already some tourism supporting facilities in the village, but the scale is small, not systematic, and the space conditions are relatively poor, and the format of business is mainly farmhouse, lack of hierarchy and influence. As an important part of the “beautiful village” project in Meishan area, the planning defines Baima village as a traditional Chinese culture and leisure experience village relying on the surrounding natural resources and the cultural resources of Baima temple. The future format of the village will focus on the farming experience and traditional Chinese culture, with the main business themes of “Confucius six arts”and “gentlemen eight arts”.

The planning and construction work is divided into several parts: 1. Environment improvement and style improvement: based on the original texture of the village, the designer sorted out the village structure, improved and improved the village landscape (especially the water system), and sorted out and restored some typical dwellings in Meishan. 2. Reconstruction of buildings to create highlights: the designer selects a number of buildings in the village and transforms them according to the architectural characteristics to form a spatial node with the unique character of Baima and the propagation force. Such as 12-Bay Art School, Mica-Bar, Chin House, etc. According to the overall positioning of the village, the designer endows space nodes with appropriate

functions to serve local residents and foreign guests. 3. Introduction of social capital and diversified development: based on the work completed by the government in the early stage, the designer improves the scheme design of village infrastructure and nodes, and then introduces social capital to form benign interaction and complete the rural revitalization. 4. Cultural and creative follow-up and enrichment of services: in combination with the characteristics of Baima village and the architectural transformation and future business form in this work, the design team designs a series of cultural and creative products to serve future tourism and leisure services.
